The Cross: 9 out of 10 Latter-day Saints Miss This | John Hilton III E0031

Lasting an amazing 90 minutes, the pair see God the Father, Christ, Satan and the three degrees of heavenly glory. The revelation meant so much to the prophet that he reworked it as a beautiful poem and included it in a letter to W.W. Phelps, with whom he shared correspondence. To others though, this revelation signified the end of their relationship with the prophet. But why? Join Dr. Lynn Hilton Wilson as she tackles some of the tough questions surrounding one of the most significant revelations of the Restoration. Were there any witnesses to this amazing vision or was it explained to members of the Church at a later date? Was the content of the vision accepted by members of the Church or did it create controversy? How similar were the revelations that Joseph received to the teachings of other Christian leaders of the time? Thank you for joining us at Scripture Central!

Jesus is coming—but no one knows when. In this deep dive into the Parable of the Ten Virgins, we’ll explore everything from small details—like whether the women were really carrying lamps—to life-changing questions: Why did Jesus compare His return to a wedding? This parable is richer, more urgent, and more personal than you ever imagined.

At the John Johnson farmhouse and Kirtland printing office, he traces the dramatic history of how revelations to Joseph Smith were compiled, debated, and ultimately published—forming a living book of scripture that continues to grow today. At BYU's Special Collections, Casey examines rare early editions, including the 1833 Book of Commandments—nearly lost forever during mob violence. He walks us through the D&C’s evolution across nearly two centuries, from early hand-copied revelations to the fully digital version we now study on our phones. The journey ends at the Saratoga Springs Utah Temple, where Casey reflects on the Latter-day Saint belief in personal revelation and an open canon, and how both continue to shape lives today.
